It’s triggering some sort of primal fear response in me. Which, honestly, I think is a good thing.
This is a little bit unfair to paleoartists. A lot of the drawings people are most familiar with came from a time when there was less evidence for feathers. They absolutely update drawings as more fossils are found that change the picture, but we don’t always go and look at the newest art. Just how much feather cover specific dinosaurs would have had is still a bit unknown but it’s unlikely they would have had anywhere near as much feather cover as modern birds.
I love the art in Dinosaurs: New Visions of a Lost World. Such an amazing book!
(Sinosauropteryx, archeopteryx and anurognathus. And BTW the colours are accurate. We can find out now.)
Sorry but that last one is just so fucking goofy looking. If that thing came to attack me I would just die of laughter and it would then be able to eat me.
Why would it attack you? It was the size of a budgie. Really doubt a budgie would be able to eat you no matter how hard it would try.
I mean, really depends on the time period. Bugs are a surprisingly bad frame of size reference depending on the time period. Tha little insect might actually be human sized ^^’
Who knows. Animals can behave strangely sometimes. I also missed the bug so I had no idea how big it would be.
I have to disagree with that last point. Dinosaurs lasted a LONG time, and while.early dinosaurs certainly had little feather coverage, such as stegosaurus, later dinosaurs, such as yutyrannus and therozinosaurus, were absolutely covered.
Now, there were not “feathers”, but feather like structures that eventually evolved into feathers in their descendants
I hate its little zergling arms.
Majestic creatures
Would not bang
I’ve done worse.
Username checks out, eh?
We believe you.
Kinda captures their essential nature, though. The fluff is pretty deceptive.
Looks like an illustration from All Yesterdays.
Damn, just figured out what All Tomorrows is sort of made to look like
Those pokemon are metal as fuck.

Yes because paleoartists have never encountered a wing structure
